Make config set create a list for an index under a missing key (closes #308)

`config set age_recipients.0 age1...` on a file without `age_recipients`
created a map keyed `0` and wrote it, after which every command failed
to parse the config. A missing key is now created as a list when the
next path element is a number, and an index that list cannot take is an
error.

`config set` now decodes its result into the config type before
writing, and on failure refuses and leaves the file unchanged. It does
not validate: settings are set one at a time, and validation would
refuse a config still being filled in.

Judgement call: a `${...}` reference set on a setting that is not text
is now refused, since it decodes as text; `config edit` can still write
one.
